Pattern notes

The pattern is worked from bottom to top.

The pattern is based on the apache tear pattern.

The pattern is worked on right side only. (except row 2)

The joining chain is never counted as a stitch.

The end chain is never counted as a stitch.

First dc is always crocheted in the first stitch (same stitch as yarn is joined).

Last dc is always crocheted in the last stitch.

The stitch behind the double treble in front loop only or front post is not crocheted.

Start every row with a long thread and leave a long threat of yarn (approximately 15 cm) when fastening off.

The pattern is repeating itself from stitch 7 to stich 32 (26 stitches) this makes the pattern adjustable by a multiple of 26 stitches plus 25. (The written repeating part (rep * to * ) doesn´t always follow the stitch 7 to stitch 32 repeating, as I did not want to divide the first dc in blo section in two parts.) The written pattern is has 129 stitches. (4 times 26 plus 25)


The first 5dc in blo and last 5dc in blo are start/end stitches. They do not affect the graphical pattern. It is possible to do more or less stitches in the beginning/end, if you want the graphical pattern coming closer to or farther from the border.

The pattern is repeating itself from row 7 to row 32. You can repeat them as often as you want. Finish the pattern by repeating row 7 to row 19 one more time, to finish the blanket in the same colours as you started with.

Row 14 and row 27 (and when these rows are repeated) are direction changing rows. They are crocheted in yarn B or yarn F. The FPdtr are crocheted around the apache double trebles two rows below, which means that they are the same colour.

A dc in the back loop of the aptr in row below is crocheted when written in the pattern. As you see in the picture in row 10. “…1apdtr, 1dc in blo (this is crocheted in the blo of the apdtr in row below), 1 apdtr…” The apdtr always counts as a normal stitch as usual when the apache tears technique is used.

A border is optional. I just cut off the threads at the same length. ( ca.12cm)
